A heartwarming story about friendship, forgiveness and a whole lot of festive fun for readers of Katherine Woodfine, Robin Stevens, Karen Inglis, Scott Peters, and Siobhan Dowd.

When Laney and Ben stumble through the door of Kringle's Emporium, they step into a world of hidden wonders. But the emporium is more than a shop of curiosities. It is Kris Kringle's travelling hiding place, and the magic of Christmas is in danger.

Along with Ben's mischievous sister Millie, the pair decipher the shop's enchanted objects to face a global mission. All the while, they must avoid the shadowy organisation threatening to steal Kringle's powers and the school bullies determined to ruin their unlikely friendship.

As snow falls across the town of Six Pines and the clock ticks towards Christmas Day, Laney and Ben discover that courage - and magic - sparkle in the most unexpected places.
